Mastering Pre-K Sight Words

The Dolch Pre-K list represents the foundational vocabulary for early readers. These words are typically the first ones introduced to preschool children. They act as the "glue" for simple sentences, such as "a", "and", "the", and "is".

💡 Teaching Tip

Don't try to teach all 40 words at once. Delete most of the words from the input box above and focus on just 10 words per week. Once those are mastered, generate a new sheet with the next batch.

First 40 Words for Pre-Readers

These Dolch Pre-Kindergarten words are the building blocks of early literacy. Before mastering these whole words, ensure your child recognizes individual letters using our Alphabet Tracing sheets. It is also a great time to start practicing their signature with our Name Tracing Tool.
